Basically, we can distinguish three groups of media.
1. A big block mainstream Who until recently ignored the massacre (or minimized it, making Hamas entirely responsible) but criticized the conduct of the war, Netanyahu and its corruption, the actions of settlers in the West Bank.
2. A extreme right block (chain 14, Israel Hayom, and also a lot of social networks), which we will compare to Fox or CNews in France: many opinions, violent, an open racism, very little report, and above all none concerning the Palestinians. These criticize the block mainstream that they find Propaletinian, to which they reproached in a poll in early June for giving too much space in Gaza (which does not lack salt).
3. Finally, the small block very cited outside of Israel, especially Haaretzand online magazine 972 who have their English version. They have a common singularity, they employ a significant number of Palestinian journalists (of Israel) who therefore have massively access to sources in Arabs. And they cover in detail, from the start to 972 (Haaretz got more slowly), the Gaza massacre (972 said early “genocide”), the disaster of the system implemented by the Gaza Humaninian Foundation (GHF), the total insufficiency of humanitarian aid, the trucks that are not allowed to enter … In short, which you can read in The world, Libérationor others. Yes, these are easily considered as “Traitors”. In addition, they do not spare their colleagues. To be precise, the point of view of these media that many in Israel will say “Far left” Sometimes appears in opinion articles from the mainstream media (like Ynet or the Walla site).
We must qualify this painting, because there are concerns that we will find in almost all the media, even if they are treated differently: anti -Semitism (real or supposed) is very covered, for a long time, in Israel. And in fact, recently, there have been hostile acts towards Israelis outside of Israel, in increasing number. For example, a boat of Israeli tourists had to be “re-routed” from a Greek port due to a Propalestinian demonstration. Two young Israelis were brutalized in Rhodes. From chain 14 to Haaretzthese facts, for example, were covered. The difference can be in the explanation and in the volume of covered facts. In the extreme right, we scream with anti -Semitism in all the subject, one never wonders about causality, and what nourishes this hostility towards Israelis. Channel 14 is the only one to cover certain facts whose interpretation can be complex (if you are interested, seek “James O’Brien”, “LBC”, “London”, “Antisemism”), for an angal journalist who apologized for having quoted a listener’s message that could be interpreted as anti-Semitic, perhaps, “Unprecedented anti -Semitism”.
Finally, we must constantly recall the presence of hostages, which saturates public space, newspapers, sites, major events, but also bridges, large avenues, videos that are broadcast in workplaces (in my university in Tel Aviv, for example), and on October 7, still omnipresent in the news, with accounts of ex-hostages, their families, inquests in detail. Hamas. The hostages are neglected only on the far right, judged an obstacle of course to victory, then to the recolonization of Gaza whose extreme right dreams. But this is an exception. It is an important cut, but which does not affect the fate of the Gazaouis or the Palestinians of the West Bank.
